Hello to the list from French Saint Martin
Hello to the list. This is my first, so please excuse what may seem silly questions. I have joined the TBBeta list just to watch at this stage, because I think TB has more potential than all the other mail clients put together. So how do I get maximum use from this enormous program? Is there a tutorial on macros and a comprehensive listing of variables used in templates? e.g. v%THEBATVERSION. or variable that gives your long/lat and location, CPU. Hope to be able to contribute something useful to the list once I get to know a few more things. My ultimate goal with TB is to manage incoming and outgoing mail with canned responses parsing variables to it, thus maximizing automation. If someone has written a tutorial on this, or even another website, I would sure appreciate the url. Has SMTP with Gmail been resolved yet? It just sits there when I try. SO for the time being I will keep POP with Gmail using the [EMAIL PROTECTED] domain. -- Michael J. Sharp [EMAIL PROTECTED] Using the world's best e-mail client: The Bat!

Re: Location of Anti-Virus Plugin
Hi everyone, Does anyone know where the location of the anti-virus plugins in The Bat is? I have an errant plugin (Generic DLL Plugin) listed in Options-AntiVirus (with a status of 'error') and I want to get rid of it if it isn't for an anti-virus I currently have installed.

Re: Voyager usage problems
Hello Alexander, On Tue, 26 Dec 2006 you wrote in mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ASK 1. you can't send with Voyager and ASK 2. your dad can't connect using OE. ASK Is that correct? Indeed it is. I used to be able to send with no problems but the last two times I've been up (and since he upgraded his McAfee) I haven't been able to connect, even though I put all the usual SMTP settings in for my Voyager, and then there's something that completely screws up MacAfee so that Spamkiller doesn't work. On going to the internet chat forums I found out that it's the Spamkiller programme that doesn't actually load and using Voyager causes that. I've now completely removed it but still can't send myself using Voyager. ASK If the McAfee spam killer works as a local proxy and automatically ASK adjusts the configuration, the entries in OE would be correct ASK (using localhost as the server). Yes, it does work if I manually install Spamkiller but that's beyond my Dad so that's why I've removed it. ASK As it looks now, the McAfee spam filter is not working, and OE ASK can't connect to the local proxy. Indeed, that's what turned out to be the problem. ASK a) the personal firewall (McAfee it seems) is set to something like ASK high security and blocks every SMTP connection attempt to outside ASK hosts that are not explicitely configured as allowed - you have to ASK check the configuration of the McAfee firewall in that case The first time I use Voyager McAfee asks for permission to allow it. The firewall itself is set to normal security. ASK b) the provider of your dad blocks SMTP connections to foreign SMTP ASK servers and people must relay all messages thru their own SMTP server I suppose that's a possibiliy although he's using BT in the UK and I think they'd allow that sort of thing. At the moment I'll just have to content myself with being able to read mails but having to send using Mail2Web. -- Regards, Richard | The Bat! 3.86.03 with POP3 account AntispamSniper 1.7.0.8 | Windows XP (build 2600) version 5.1 Service Pack 2 | F-Prot AV, Outpost Firewall Pro, Spysweeper, Adaware, SpyBot | CPU: Athlon 1.09 Ghz | RAM: 1024 MB Holiday in France: http://perso.wanadoo.fr/lazyhomes/holiday.html mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ .

Hello, I'm using Voyager up at my Dad's house and am having problems. Whatever I set I can't send, only receive. I have to send via Mail2web.

using the bat to extract info and put it in address book
Hello listbuds
I'm wondering if anyone knows how to (or has sample code)
that will extract information from an email, and then put
that info in the bat address book. For instance,
I have an email whose content is:

Subject: hnc newsletter
Sent: 6/14/2006 at 3:0:55 EST from 71.254.136.122

I want to extract first name and put it in the appropriate
address book field then last name, later, if I have address
info, I'd like to poupulate that automatically too when I
get the message.

The Bat! hangs on startup
Greetings. This morning, when I opened The Bat!, the application (3.5.30) hung and refused to load. CPU usage shot to 100% and maxed out the available RAM on my Sony Vaio P3-1.3/256 MB running WinXP Home SP2. I have not installed any new software since running the Bat yesterday evening. I've reinstalled, done a system restore (just in case), done a repair installation on 3.5.30, removed the TBI files to prompt an email index rebuild, and rebooted multiple times. After reading an earlier message where similar problems were resolved by updating, I updated to The Bat 3.5.31 beta. I am still having the same problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Automatic backups?
Dear Britt, But it happens so that I know that one of the bat-dealers has made a program called EmailAlarm, and it has several purposes. 1) It can generate an e-mail whenever you want and sent it to whomever you want at the time specified by you. 2) Make a PopUp Windows reminder. 3) Start a program at a certain time. The program is shareware. The same dealer has made a backup program for The Bat!, but I haven't used it myself, because at the time I couldn't make it work with SecureBat! It is freeware now. Go to http://www.macasoft.hu/ and look for the English pages. I assume this isn't official Ritlabs material as it would be on their own site? Does anyone use any of these products or have had experience of them? What are the *real* benefits over TB! as it stands?

Big one. At 1.42 the mailbox file format changed and the file extension were also changed at the same time. You can use the Tools .. Import to import from the old .MSB format files. HTH. Thank you also for pointing out that import feature. However, if I'm to manually import all .msb files from all my folders, I will be very dissapointed. I have over 60 of them, and the clicking would take me too much time. Is there any way to automate this? I can write a simple script that creates a file in which I sequentially put the contents of all .MSB files in the folder-tree.. If that ensures that I *only* lose folder-information (and possibly my attachments), then that will do.

Re: Problem sending/receiving large attachemnts...
Mark, All I can say is that I've had the same exact problem. On messages larger than 2.5 MB, I don't just get the hanging, but a reboot-required crash 100% of the time. I'd submit a bug report to RITLABS so they can know others have the problem, and they can address it in the next version, hopefully.

There are only two programs that I have downloaded that have prompted me to send any money off. Bat! being one and Gravity news reader the other. In fact it was in a news group discussion about Gravity that I was recommended to the Bat! I said if I could find an e-mail program as good as Gravity is a news reader I could do away with Outlook Express altogether. Try Xnews: http://xnews.3dnews.net/ You don't even have to plunk any money down at all. It's free. But I liked it so much that I sent the writer a Borders Gift Certificate.

Signatures: (Was Re: envelope priority colours)

When I write a business letter, I may have a footer with our address or whatever else, but that's not where I put my closing. I treat email the same way, a sig (by email definations) is more of a "footer" and shouldn't include the closing. Comments?

Re: Wish list from a new user of The Bat
Great suggestions...I agree with all of them... I just have two comments: - A warning if you try to send messages without any subject (I frequently forget to add a subject, so have got used to this feature in other email programs. Since I got The Bat I have sent several emails without subjects :-( ). Yes, I even sent a message to this user group without a subject...silly me! - Option to colour signature's with a different colour to the rest of the message. Good... - Option for different colours for different quoting levels. Very Good... - Configurable toolbar, so you can remove unwanted buttons and add others that you do want (I'd quite like a 'show kludges' button. yes, I like it... - Recognise the 'user-agent' header as well as the 'x-mailer' one when you ask the program to show the name of the user's email program. Haven't had a need for this, I've never seen user-agent, but if it's out there, it should be supported. - "Kill file". Right clicking on a message automatically sets up a filter moving messages by that author into a specified box. I think you can already do this by right clicking. I'm not at "The bat" at the moment, but I believe that if you right click, and go to "Creat filter" (Maybe this is under specials?) You can create a filter with the information from that message (Sender, subject, etc) Cheers, Tim.

Enough already (Was: Re: Pegasus vs. The Bat!)
I'm just a TB! newbie (yet a definite internet and email veteran) and I agree with Alex with all of this. Steve, although you offer "workable" solutions, there are easier ways to deal with the The Bat!s shorcomings besides "what's between the chair and the keyboard", as you put it. You may not care to deal with mail from multiple accounts as one, but some of us do. I don't want to redirect messages all over the place, bouncing them through my ISP or anywhere else for that matter. For example, I have an old account, one that I rarely use, but is still active. I keep it active just in case something comes along that's worthwhile, maybe an old correspondence, maybe an old friend who tracked me down through an outdated internet search engine. Regardless of how the people got the address, I want to filter it the same way as my other mail. We can't always control where everyone sends email, we don't email EVERYONE everyday where we can remind them into submission. The only other way to do that would be to have a single email account and give the user no choice. That's neither possible nor practical in most situations. Steve, I think you need to accept that your way may not be the *right* way, it's just your way. There are a lot of us out there that operate our accounts differently than you do. We just happen to use the same email product. Therefore, we can have our wishlist, and you can do things your way. If you are perfectly happy with the way it works, stick with 1.38e as long as you like. You don't have to upgrade. Hopefully, when 2.x comes out, it will have OPTIONS, and hopefully you can continue to operate the way you do even if you do upgrade. For the rest of us, that want to do things differently, we have a right to ask for features, and should expect them to be implemented, as paying customers, if they are supported by enough people. Frequently, your responses to someone's wish list have been: "Bad Idea" or "Wrong" type answers. Instead of a simple: "IMHO, this would not be effective because..." You need to accept other peoples TB! usage. They aren't wrong, they aren't bad ideas. They may be based on misinformation, or not completely thought through, but if you keep bashing all the new ideas, and stifle innovation by telling people that the problem is the user, and the software doesn't need improving, we'll end up with a Micro$oft product!

Filtering Across Accounts (was: Re: Pegasus vs. The Bat!)

Turn off confirmation dialogs?
Hello! I was wondering if there are any options anywhere to tone down the confirmation dialogs? There seem to be lots.

Sorry for the terrible formatting on this post. This web based email must truncate when it sends, even though it doesn't do it in the editor window.
